Title: Exhaust gas purifier
Inventor: ASHIDA MASAAKI
IPC: B01J35/04
Filed: 2002-04-24
Abstract: <P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To solve a problem where HC which can easily exhausted after starting cannot be fully purified because the HC is removed from a HC trap agent before a three way catalyst reaches an active temperature after cold starting of an engine, in an engine exhaust gas purifying system using the HC trap catalyst.  <P>SOLUTION: A slit is formed traversing a cell of a honeycomb carrier and being locally distributed at the downstream of the carrier, to make the carrier uniformly carry the HC trap agent, and to make it carry catalyst metal so as to increase a carrying amount at the upstream side. The upstream of the carrier easily increases in temperature in contact with exhaust gas, and then the time until reaching an active temperature is shortened by making the many catalyst metals carry at the upperstream part to make it possible to increase a converting efficiency of detached HC. Although carrying amount of the catalyst metal is relatively lessened at the downstream part of the carrier. The downstream part of the carrier, the converting efficiency is increased by turbulence with the slit to ensure a required HC purifying performance.  <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO
